{{Increased media coverage of climate Change would create more awareness among citizens in the region and thus generate a response that would curb its dangers.}}
This was disclosed in Kigali at a forum of climate change journalists that attracted participants from Rwanda, Uganda, Kenya and Zambia.
Patrick Luganda, the forum’s chairman said “I encourage Rwanda meteorology agency to train Rwandan journalists on how to write about climate, or environment in different regions.”
Mr. Luganda added that “Journalists are also supposed to seek news on small manufacturers and corporations work, because they also create greenhouse pollutants, or reduce the amount of oxygen in the air.”
This forum of climate change journalists in eastern and southern Africa (FCCJESA) seeks to have knowledgeable journalists to report on climate change professionally in the next 5years.
